I THE MICHIGAN DAILY MONDAY,JUNE27, 19 THE SPORTING LADY' By THREE BLIND MICE . , .. As the hot rays of Old Sol beating down make studying increasingly difficult and soft zephyrs waft in through class windows to make the great outdoors seem doubly inviting, the thought of recreational activities comes to mind. ... The department of physical education for women, foreseeing all this, has several activities all planned and recreational facili- ties and equipment can be obtained in large doses by those' interested. Classes in archery, badminton, modern dance (both a methods and an introduction class will be given), tap dancing (two classes will also be given, one for women and one a mixed class at 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays), golf, swimming, recreational swimming (this is a class where no instruction is given but you just swim around for pleasure), tennis and rid- ing ... . If there is a demand for additional classes, or the hours at which the classes are schedtiled at present prove inconvenient, new sections will be opened if the department finds it possible to do so and if the demand is made evident within the first few days . . . . So the sooner you get over to Barbour Gym and register the better a chance you have of getting what you want when you want it . . . . And the best thing about it all is the fact that you can rent equipment for the nominal sum of 25 cents for the summer in each sport except riding . . . And ihat's the only cost of the sport for the whole six weeks it's given . . "Line forms at the .right". . . If you want to be really efficient and get in your classes as soon as possible, here's the procedure . Registration takes place at Barbour Gym, so it's necessary to go over there and get a paper (which they'll give you), which names the activities, their section numbers, the days, hours and the place at which they're given . ... Then, after you've found a section that doesn't conflict with your classes or any other activities, make out a card for it, and hand it in . . . . If -you wish to rent equipment, having neglected to pack your golf clubs or tennis racquet at the last minute, you can purchase an equipment ticket in Room 15 in Barbour Gym before attending class . . . . The tickets, except in-the case of riding, where six lessons cost $5, can be obtained for 25 cents each and will last' you through the summer. Next, you're required by the department to go to the f Health Service for a medical check, which consists of a l brief physical examination and a blood and urine count.... You can secure an appointment for the pedical check and at the end you're told whether you're in fit condition to participate in all kinds of activities or if not, what kinds might prove too strenuous.... In this way, you're protected (as well as the physical educa- tion department) from doing something that's too much for you. . And if you have anything the matter with you, in most cases, you can have it treated at the Health Service all the time you're enrolled here. . . . The check is required before class participation will be allowed. . . And once you've finished doing these t'ings, classes meet for work starting Wednes- day, except in the case of three dancing sections which begin today.. . In order to give you time for doing any cramming you may need to for final exams, all activity classes close at the end of the sixth week, giving you two full weeks to study. . "Hours to cool off... . For those who desire recreational swimming without any special instruction, the Union swimming pool will be open to women from 11 a.m. to noon Tuesdays and Thursdays, at 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays, Wednesdays and French House i Begins Fourth Summer Here Opportunity Is Offered' For Practicing French Conversation Informally The French House,established in 1935, will be located at 1414 Wash- tenaw' Ave., during the 1938 Sum- mer Session, it was announced by Mr Charles E.

Common Table Salt Is Best Weapon In Fighting Hot Weather Prostration State Health Official Saysx Elderly People Should: Avoid Over-Exertion Common table salt was recom- mended as a weapon against hot weather fatalities in a statement is-I sued by Dr. Don W. Gudakunst, State Health Commissioner, last week. Two years ago, Dr. Gudak'unst pointed out, 956 deaths occurred dur- ing the protracted heat wave of July. "In case of excessive perspiration add an extra amount of ordinary table. salt to the diet," he urged residents of the state. This extra amount of salt, he said, lessens the danger of heat exhaustion or' prostration. It is best taken with drinking water, he indicated. Dr. Gudakunst said that young children and old people are most susceptible to extreme heat, and urged persons over 40 and particularly those suffering from diseases of the heart or arteries to avoid over-exertion and exposure to the sun during the hottest part of the day. The commissioner recommended the following general rules of hot weather hygiene: 1. Eat lightly and dress lightly. ,2. Avoid over-exertion especially after eating. 3. Avoid exposure to the sun during the hottest part of the day. 4. Abstain from stimulating drinks, but drink plenty of water. , teir eating. 5. Take frequent cooling baths. 7. Add a teaspoonful of table salt 6. Avoid swimming immediately af- 1 to daily diet. ...... . __ _ _I r.; ,rte" .1 You'll Want Loads of Cool Cottons to Beat the Heat I F ' 3 by SIZES 11 to 46 Law School's Session Beguin .:.: k : c. r. :: , b 3r The Coolest, S 1.95 to -I Classes To Continue Till 10.95 August 31 The forty-fourth annual Summer Session of the Law School got under way last Monday with 18 faculty members and 160 students participat- ing.

To quote her, "Contrary to custom, this department, for a small rental of 25 cents a season, provides archery, badminton, golf, swimming and tennis equipment. Naturally, this equip- ment is limited, xd will be rented to the first applicants who present themselves".. In other words, it's "first come, first served," if you want to rent equipment, : the sooner you finish registering, the better your chance of getting what you want. .. . "The Who and Where".,... Besides Dr. Bell, the staff of the department will include Dr. Mabel Rugen, who is also with the division of Hygiene and Public Health as well, Miss Dorothy Beise, Miss Marie Hartwig and two visiting instruc- tors. . . . They are Miss Barbara Crowe, director of women's sports at the University oY Vermont, who will teach archery and swimming, Miss Helen Ellis, who will teach dance here after teaching it for three years at Purdue and who has just finished a year of study with Henya Holme in New York City, and Miss Helen McLane, a 1937 Michigan graduate, who will teach swimming here after teaching for the year in Kalamazoo. .. . If you don't want to go out for any organized activi- ties, there are a lot of facilities open for you any time you wish to use them. . . . First, there are 12 clay and four cement tennis courts over at Palmer Field, an archery range and a meticulously kept putting green, as well as a driving field. . . . Besides this, there's the Women's Ath- letic Building, right next to Palmer Field (they're both at the junction of North University and Forest) where most of the equipment is kept. It also has an archery range, bowling alleys and golf cages for those who prefer indoor sports. . . . Oh yes, and there's a nice, cool veranda for cooling yourself off after over-exerting on Palmer Field. . . . Besides these sports, there are always canoeing, bicycling, roller skating and hiking for those who prefer to stay a little off "the beaten track". . . . So it's your own fault if you go away "out of condition" at the end of the summer.. 74 DANCING Class & individual in- struction in all types of dancing. Teachers' course.
